Another Day

Am Am Am

[Verse 1]
Am                      G         Am
This world is made with sweat and toil
C                        G
Pushing muscle and elbow oil
   Dm                        F
We can't lie too long in the shade,
      Am             G    Am
Cause every day must be remade

Am                      G        Am
Some days you fall some days you fly
    C                      G
But in the end we all must die
    Dm                       F
Our rotting flesh and broken bone
     Am                   G       Am
Will feed the ground that we call home
Am                        G       Am
Will feed the ground that we call home

[Chorus 1]
      C                              G
But a new sprout grows from a fallen tree.
   C                     D
My sons will go on after me
   Dm7                          F
So lift your heart and dry your eye
     Am             G        Am
It's another day to live and die
     Am             G        Am
It's another day to live and die

[Verse 2]
        Am             G      Am
And now I've run naked in the wild,
C                            G
seen the beauty of a newborn child
    Dm                     F
And like the alchemists of old,
      Am              G        Am
I've tried to spin my straw to gold

Am                      G       Am
Most times a giver, sometimes a thief
   C                         G
So full of hope but prone to grief
  Dm                   F
Between freedom and despair
  Am                G     Am
I know the truth is lying there
  Am                      G     Am
I've seen the truth, it's lying there

[Chorus 2]
      C                              G
And a new sprout grows from a fallen tree.
     C                      D
This world will go on after me
   Dm7                          F
So lift your heart and dry your eye
     Am             G        Am
It's another day to live and die
     Am             G        Am
It's another day to live and die

[Verse 3]
Am                         G        Am
So go on now, don't you worry 'bout me,
       C                          G
You've miles to go and a world to see
   Dm                            F
My life's been long and full and good
     Am                G      Am
I've run this race the best I could

Am                         G     Am
It's a short time here and long apart,
        C                           G
But the same song rings in both our hearts
   Dm                      F
So take my guitar when I'm gone
      Am                  G       Am
Write your own rhymes and pass it on
      Am                    G       Am
Just take your hit and then pass it on

[Chorus 3]
      C                              G
Let a new sprout grows from a fallen tree.
     C                     D
This song will go on after me
   Dm7                          F
So lift your heart and dry your eyes,
     Am             G        Am
It's another day to live and die
     Am             G        Am
It's another day to live and die
     Am             G        Am
Just another day
